Greetings fellow people. I have experienced Shen. Yun. 3 times as of now, and I cannot wait to experience it again. The performance on April 12 at the San Luis theater was magical. How many shows does a person go and see that leave them so inspired! 4 stars

This Shen Yun performancewas a wonderful experience that I recommend to all of those that love the arts. Thank you for this gift you are sharing with the world

This year's show is excellent. We enjoyed it.

My cousin & I both attended for the first time in Feb 2017. Oh my goodness, the moment the 1st curtain rose, the whole audience sighed and caught our breath in unison. It was truly a magical, one-of-a-kind experience! The dancing was mesmerizing, costumes gorgeous and wonderful stories. Plus, the very innovative and interactive backdrop - We are still trying to figure out how they did it and so precisely timed!! I have been telling everyone about it, even though the uniqueness makes it hard to describe! You won't believe it, Go see it for yourself! We do plan to attend again in the future!

Shen Yun — divine beings dancing. No words shall suffice to adequately describe this dance show. A mix of vibrant colours, incredible movement and powerful music from a live orchestra, which uses a mix of traditional Western and Chinese instruments. The show in unequalled to anything I have ever seen. If you have the opportunity to attend do so.

I took my wife Sue to see this and we loved it. Shen Yun is spectacular and sublime. It uses a large rear projected screen to create the sets and incorporates moving images from the screen that fly towards the stage and land as the actors rise from the where the images have landed to give the impression that the projected images are manifesting on stage. Add to that the colourful costumes and the beautiful dancing - with a fantastic orchestra of traditional Chinese and classical European instruments creating a soundscape while telling stories from China's past (Historical stories and mythical stories) and from China's present. The show is brilliant and it is political and anti-oppressive. A good part of the narrative is to do with the Chinese Government's oppression of the Falun Gong/Falun Dafa movement. Of which the Shen Yun founders were members. This movement is based on balancing the being through physical movement and from there emerges a virtuous disposition based on Truth, Compassion and Tolerance. It is a movement that brings together China's ancient cultural traditions (particularly Toaism and Buddhism) to crystallize a simple practise to make lives better. This movement naturally grew and flourished in it's homeland - but got so massive (because it was good and it worked) that the Chinese Communist party attacked and oppressed this culture practised by a massive community of around 70 million people. So the subtext of Shen Yun touches greatly on these experiences and ultimately tells the story of human spirit struggling and rising against powerful and oppressive conditions. In many ways, to greater and lesser degrees, this story is every person's story as we stuggle and find ourselves and evolve in life. Shen Yun is a must see event.

First time Ann and I saw Shen Yun. Beautiful and amazing color, costumes and classical Chinese dance performance. Incredible digital backgrounds and interaction with performers. We really enjoyed the Chinese instruments with the western orchestra. Really appreciated the story telling of each performance. This is a must see performance!! I have a new profound respect for the long history of Chinese culture....Thank you....Bonita Jones

Pamela and I both saw this for the first time and what an amazing, incredibly beautiful performance of Classical Chinese Dance in Melbourne with the heartwarming message of truthfulness, compassion with great story lines plus the colors were unreal too, so if you like dance of any type then it's a great one to see for all ages , looking forward to going next year when they come back again with new different dances

Yes, great show, wonderful performers.
